Abstract: In the context of inter-organizational data sharing and exchange,maintaining strong operational consistency is a crucial technical foundation to achieve effective data synchronization.Based on blockchain technology,a model to enhance the operational consistency for inter-organizational data exchange is proposed.The model leverages a consortium blockchain as a write-ahead log,enabling databases to backtrack incomplete synchronizations.Within the consortium blockchain,a pointer structure is implemented to reduce the time required for backtracking.Additionally,data structures and consensus algorithms are designed for on-chain storage of requests.An access control mechanism is set up to verify user identities,ensuring data security and user privacy.Finally,simulation experiments are conducted to validate the reliability of the proposed model and explore the impact of a series of parameters on different evaluation metrics.The results indicate that under various parameter settings,the proposed model ensures strong operational consistency for inter-organizational data exchange.Furthermore,compared to existing baselines,it exhibits higher request execution efficiency.Moreover,the pointer structure further enhances the model’s performance,especially when there is a large amount of data stored on the chain.

Key words: Inter-organizational collaboration, Data exchange, Operational consistency, System availability, Consortium blockchain
